5 or 6 years ago I sold my ancient but still excellent Mark Levinson 390S player and bought a NAD M50.2. This unusually can simply PLAY a CD or it can RIP it onto its twin hard drive stores and it includes a Roon ready BluOS streamer. No DAC, but it offers extra digital inputs and an analogue input that it digitises and outputs via coax, optical or AES/EBU.
I've not heard it but Mark Levinson recently introduced the 5101 CD/SACD player / streamer. This includes a DAC and offers 2 digital inputs and outputs (no AES/EBU), but sadly no volume control. Their old 39 and 390S offered a good volume control so just add power amp. The 5101 needs an integrated or separates.
